ove, letting out roars of fury. Its fur stood on end, shimmering with silver.Obviously, the Void Devourer sensed danger approaching.However, its size is not large enough yet.To swallow the ancient god..."Only three lists" Fang Yu asked.
"No, it's said that there are still a few rankings within the Peek Heaven Bureau, but those rankings are more niche and haven't been made public." Zheng Ze said.
Fang Yu nodded, indicating that he understood.
At this time, a large crowd had gathered in the square ahead, beneath the Heavenly Ranking board.
Fang Yu and Zheng Ze couldn't squeeze in at all, they could only watch from afar.
"The fourth generation of the Wei family, three brothers ascended to the Heavenly Rankings at the same time. This scene...is truly unprecedented!"
"Amazing! The three brothers' names together!"
"After today, the landscape of the North Capital's martial arts world is going to change!"
Among the crowd, there were gasps of astonishment.
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the Heavenly Ranking board ahead.
At the very bottom of the heavenly list, around one hundredth place, you could see three consecutive names of the surname Wei, faintly glowing.
From top to bottom, they are Wei Xuan, Wei Tian, and Wei Zhen.
Among the crowd, some people were just there to see what was happening, while others looked displeased.
Obviously, the rise of the Wei family was not a good thing for this part of him.
Fang Yu raised his eyes and looked towards the top of the Heavenly Leaderboard.
At the very top of the Heavenly Rankings, there was a name: Murong Jian.
Second place, Si Kongchen.
Third place, Chu Tianren.
Fourth place, Cao Baihe.
Fifth place, Nie Xinyi.
Seeing the top five rankings, Fang Yu frowned and asked, "How come the top five prodigies aren't from the Eight Great Families"
Zheng Ze looked up at the names on the Heavenly Ranking and said, "These five prodigies come from the five major sects in Beidu... Although sects are declining in other regions, their influence in Beidu is still strong. They maintain a relatively balanced situation with the major martial arts families in Beidu."
"On the entire Heaven Ranking, at least half of the outstanding geniuses come from major sects, and overall, the geniuses cultivated by sects are slightly stronger."
"Of the top twenty prodigies, twelve are from sects, and only eight are from major families."
After hearing what Zheng Ze had to say, Fang Yu once again looked up at the Heavenly Ranking.
The most outstanding young talents from the Eight Great Clans are led by Wang Shuangfan from the Wang Clan, who ranks sixth.
Then comes eighth place, from the Lin family, Lin Mengxun.
The top ten prodigies, only these two come from noble families.
"The development of Beidu is really the opposite of other regions," Fang Yu said.
After casually glancing at the Heavenly Ranking, Fang Yu and Zheng Ze bypassed the crowded people ahead and came to the third stele, where there were fewer people.
Sainted List.
Fang Yu looked up at the top of the Sacred Ranking and saw the two characters, "Huixu," impressed on the fifth position.
"So, Huai Xu is ranked fifth on the Saint List..."
Fang Yu continued to look down. Among the top ten on the Saint List, besides Huixu, there were no other familiar names.
"The teacher has been on the Holy List for over a hundred years. Every time the list is updated, he climbs a few more positions. Now, he's close to the top spot." Zheng Ze looked up at the name Huixu on the Holy List, his eyes full of reverence.
"It's not bad that Huixu is like this," Fang Yu said. "With his talent, being able to cultivate to this stage is quite good."
Hearing this remark, Zheng Ze looked at Fang Yu, a hint of hesitation in his eyes, and asked: "Sir Fang, I want to ask, what is your relationship with Teacher Huixu"
"Old friend..." Zheng Ze looked at Fang Yu, his eyes still full of confusion.
Fang Yu's true form is really too young.
Although cultivators with high levels of cultivation can use various methods to make their faces appear younger, most cultivators choose not to do so.
As long as one remains mortal, a human's lifespan is ultimately finite.
And growing old is also a matter of course.
A cultivator who has trained for hundreds of years might be able to make their face look less aged, but they definitely wouldn't disguise themselves as so young... At least, that's what Zheng Ze thought.
"As his disciple, he must have mentioned me to you before, right" Fang Yu asked.
"Yes, my teacher has mentioned you more than once... But I didn't know at the time..." Zheng Ze said.
When Huixu first stepped onto the path of cultivation, his spiritual roots lacked four out of the five elements within his body. His talent was可以說是the worst grade there is," Fang Yu recalled, "But he was determined to cultivate, so I did everything I could to help him transform his physique, but the results were only average."
"But Huai Xu has a strong perseverance. Although his cultivation progress is much slower than others, he spends many times more time practicing than them."
"But even with all the hard work... spiritual roots are something that determines your limit. It's a miracle that Huixu has achieved this much, but it's also a little disappointing."
After hearing Fang Yu's words, Zheng Ze was a little stunned.
He was very clear that his teacher's cultivation level had long broken through the Nascent Soul Stage many years ago and reached the Core Formation Stage.
While the teacher is currently at which level of the integration stage, he's unsure.
But looking at the entire region, Huixu is already among the strongest masters.
Fifth on the Saintly List, and this also cemented his status.
Yet, Fang Yu before their eyes uttered the word "pity".
Could it be that he thinks Teacher Huixu's current achievements aren't high enough
Zheng Ze widened his eyes, staring at Fang Yu, filled with confusion.
At this time, Fang Yu didn't want to delve deeper into the topic. He turned his head towards the inner courtyard and said, "Didn't you say that there were a few more rankings inside the Kuitian Bureau Since we've come here, let's go take a look."
"...The internal rankings, the Skywatchers' Guild might not be willing to let us see them." Zheng Ze said.
"Just ask and you'll find out." Fangyu said.
Thereafter, the two departed from the bustling square and walked into the courtyard of the Celestial Observation Bureau.
As soon as Fang Yu stepped through the gate, he saw several old men in gray robes hurrying in different directions.
Fang Yu and Zheng Ze appeared in the inner courtyard without drawing their attention.
Thus, with no one to stop them, Fang Yu and Zheng Ze directly entered the small courtyard inside the Peitian Bureau.
There are no other people here, only three stone stelae.
Compared with the large stone steles in the square, these three are much smaller, standing at less than four meters high.
These three stone steles also have some names engraved on them, but the steles themselves do not have any names, so it is unknown what kind of list they are.
Both the first and second steles are inscribed with numerous names, arranged from high to low, covering the entire front surface of each stone.
...and the third stele had a large, empty space. ...
Only seven names were engraved on the entire stele.
"Master Fang, why is there only half a name here" Zheng Ze was taken aback by the situation under the seventh name on the third stele, and asked curiously.
Fang Yu looked at the third stone tablet.
Just like Zheng Ze said, there are seven complete names on the third stone tablet.
And the eighth name only has the character "fang" at the beginning, followed by a single dot, not a complete character.
Square...
Fang Yu's brow was furrowed.
He vaguely sensed that the square character on this stone tablet and the dot behind it...
How does it feel like the next character is going to be a 'yu' (羽)
Fan Yu looked suspiciously at the stone tablet in front of him. He leaned forward and widened his eyes, observing it carefully.
After a few seconds, a cough came from behind.
"Don't look any further, the name is just half."
A raspy, aged voice came from behind.
Fang Yu and Zheng Ze turned around, and they saw an elderly man dressed in plain clothes with white hair, shaking a banana leaf fan, walking slowly towards them.
He is the master of the Sky-Gazing Bureau, Bai Konggu.
"All the names above are complete, why does the eighth one only have half of it" Fang Yu asked.
Baikonggu glanced at Fangyu, shook her plantain fan, and said, "I don't know either. This is something the Stele of Immortal Ascension did on its own."
"The Immortal Ascension Tablet" Fang Yu's face showed a look of confusion.
"Who are the two of you How did you sneak in here This is an internal facility of our Sky-Peering Bureau, not open to the public." Bai Konggu, with white eyebrows slightly raised, asked.
"My lord, the two of us are from the Beidu Martial Arts Association. Master Fang is the newly appointed vice president." Zheng Ze immediately said.
"Oh Doesn't the Martial Arts Association look down on us, the Sky Gazing Bureau, and these rankings the most" Bai Konggu chuckled, saying with a hint of sarcasm.
Because very few people in the Martial Arts Association can make it onto the rankings, the Martial Arts Association is not friendly towards the Sky-Peering Bureau and these rankings.
Zheng Ze could only smile and follow, not saying much.t can be seen that the statue is not particularly imposing or distinctive in size.The only thing worth noting is that its eyes were closed, not open.This is the statue of the Yaozu ancestor, Emperor Y...
